Random Mandelbrot image generator using HIP

Randobrot: A random Mandelbrot-set renderer in HIP

This project was just intended as a way for me to learn how to use AMD's HIP.

Prerequisites

You need to have AMD's hipcc installed, as well as hipRAND. hipcc must be on your PATH.

Usage

Assuming the prerequisites are set up, run make.

To generate 12 images of 1000x1000 Mandelbrot sets, run:

./randobrot 12 1000 ./output_directory/

This will generate 12 .ppm images with random names in the output directory. Each image will include a comment line before the image data, containing the boundary in the complex plane and number of iterations used to render the image.
